We stand with you in this spiritual battle, for the Word of God declares in Ephesians 6:12, *"For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places."* You have rightly identified that this is not a struggle against people but against the forces of darkness that seek to oppress, distract, and destroy the children of God. We commend you for recognizing the need to contend for freedom in Christ and for the salvation of those who are still enslaved by these demonic influences.
It is powerful that you seek prayer not only for deliverance but also for the minions of these demons to come to Christ. This reflects the heart of God, who desires *all* to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:4). Your petition aligns with the Lord’s will, for He takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked but desires that they turn from their ways and live (Ezekiel 33:11). Let us remember that we were once also enslaved to sin, but by God’s grace, we have been set free through the blood of Jesus Christ. It is this same grace we must extend to others, even those who may now oppose us.
However, we must also examine our own hearts and lives to ensure we are walking in obedience to Christ, for Scripture warns that if we harbor unrepented sin, we give the enemy a foothold (Ephesians 4:27). Are there areas in your life or the lives of those in your group where compromise with sin may be granting the enemy access? Let us repent and turn wholly to the Lord, for it is in our weakness—when we rely entirely on Him—that His strength is made perfect (2 Corinthians 12:9). The battle is the Lord’s, and He has already secured the victory through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Our role is to stand firm in faith, clothed in the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18), and to wield the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.
We also notice that your petition does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we are saved and through whom we have authority over the enemy. Acts 4:12 declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved."* It is by the name of Jesus that demons flee (Luke 10:17), and it is in His name that we pray and find our victory. Let us never approach the throne of God without acknowledging the mediatory work of Christ, for He is our advocate before the Father (1 John 2:1).
Now, let us pray together for you and your group:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We lift up this group of believers who are contending daily against the forces of darkness. Lord, You have said in Your Word that greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4), and so we declare that victory over these demons and their minions. We ask that You break every chain of oppression that seeks to bind Your people. Set them free, Lord, by the power of Your Holy Spirit, and let no weapon formed against them prosper (Isaiah 54:17).
Father, we pray for the salvation of those who are still enslaved to these demonic influences. Soften their hearts, Lord, and open their eyes to the truth of the Gospel. Draw them to Yourself, that they may repent and turn to Christ for forgiveness and redemption. Let them encounter the love and power of Jesus in a way that leaves no room for doubt—He alone is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14:6).
Strengthen this group, Lord, in their faith and unity. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in obedience and boldness, unshaken by the schemes of the enemy. Equip them with Your Word, which is a lamp to their feet and a light to their path (Psalm 119:105). Let them stand firm in the armor You have provided, praying always in the Spirit with all perseverance.
We rebuke every demonic stronghold in the name of Jesus Christ. We command these spirits to flee, for they have no authority over the children of God. Let every plan of the enemy be exposed and thwarted, and let the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Father, we ask that You would purify this group and remove any sin that may give the enemy a foothold. Convict them where repentance is needed, and lead them into righteousness. May they walk in holiness, for without it, no one will see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14). Let their lives be a testimony of Your transforming power, that others may see their good works and glorify You (Matthew 5:16).
We thank You, Lord, for the victory that is already won through the blood of Jesus. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment shall be condemned. This is their heritage as servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from You (Isaiah 54:17). May they serve You with gladness and worship You in spirit and in truth (John 4:24), for You alone are worthy of all praise and honor.
In the mighty and victorious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
Stand firm, dear brothers and sisters. The battle is fierce, but the Lord is faithful. He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you can bear but will provide a way of escape (1 Corinthians 10:13). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith (Hebrews 12:2), and do not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season you will reap a harvest if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9). The enemy may rage, but his time is short (Revelation 12:12). Press on in the power of the Holy Spirit, and watch as the Lord brings about deliverance and salvation for His glory.

We're right there with you, lifting this group and their struggles up to the Lord. It's so encouraging to see the depth of your concern, not just for their deliverance, but also for the salvation of those who oppress them. That's the heart of God, and He's moving in your prayers.
We've been reminded of Romans 8:37-39, "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord." Let's stand on this truth together.
Let's pray:
Dear Lord, we come to You in the name of Jesus, our Savior and Lord. We lift up this group, asking for Your mighty hand to be upon them. Break every chain of oppression, Lord. Set them free, and let them walk in the fullness of Your love and power.
We pray for those who are still bound by darkness. Soften their hearts, Lord. Open their eyes to see the truth of the Gospel. Draw them to Yourself, that they may know the freedom and life found only in Jesus.
